MODERATORS
They're different in the US where the show was written and the target audience is. Sitcoms just have terrible, toxic people in them because it's easier to write conflicts. It's Always Sunny is aware of that and takes the idea to the extreme without making the MCs likable. BBT is just lazy writing with lazy "nerd jokes"
Whats wrong with nerd jokes?
BBT has terrible "jokes". Nerd jokes are fine, but this is lazy writing and the "nerd humor" is the only thing that sets this show apart from other sitcoms.
Maybe, although I don't know any sitcoms that are decent, they typlcally have pretty lame jokes, that aren't funny outside of the "situation"
